client relationships division before assuming a managerial role in expanding
the broker distribution network. Phil left Oxford to join U.S. Surgical as
a Sales Executive, and then in 1999 returned to the health insurance industry
with BenefitPort, where he spent four years implementing best sales practices
across the country, and then played a key role in managing national operations.

Joe began his insurance career in 1994 at Oxford Health Plans. He was an
integral part of the sales and marketing team that developed the
products for the Connecticut marketplace for Oxford. Joe was a lead
member of the sales team that created Oxford’s business base and
explosive sales growth during his tenure. His success can be attributed
to his innovative, strategic, and consultative approach to finding
solutions to his client’s cost and coverage challenges.
In 1998, Joe advanced to the role of managing Oxford’s Executive
Accounts Division in Connecticut. He worked directly with fortune 500
companies as well as the consulting community, to provide unique product
approaches for these large and demanding customers. He was responsible
for sales and retention of many of Oxford’s largest accounts (Verizon,
Pitney Bowes, Peoples Bank, UBS, Xerox, Wal-Mart, to name a few) that
generated annual revenues in excess of $35 million. His vast experience
in managed care and strong underwriting background make him an asset and
a strong cultural fit with Quantum and our clients.
Joe has been a licensed Life & Health Producer in CT, NY & NJ for over
14 years; he received his BSBA from the University of Denver.
When not working, Joe enjoys sailing, ice hockey, and working on wooden
boats. He currently resides in Norwalk, CT with his wife Lisa and twin
sons, Carter & Logan.
